Business System Processes

Information flow is as important in the manufacturing process as the physical processes themselves. When incomplete, incorrect, or unclear job information is supplied to the shop floor can cause a lot of direct and indirect downtime. Employees must stop the job, seek assistance and clarification from their supervisor, the supervisor then may have to seek clarification from the next level, and so on.
